Changes in DII and DIII Recruiting rules

Division II. With little debate, Division II institutions approved legislation that will ease recruiting restrictions on multiple fronts. To make better use of new technology and to put athletes on a more level playing field with non-athletic recruits, colleges supported a number of changes.

•D-II coaches can now visit with players as many times as they want beginning June 15 following the prospect's sophomore year in school.


•D-II coaches can now send unlimited correspondence and make unlimited phone calls beginning June 15 following the prospect's sophomore year in school.


•D-II coaches can now send unlimited instant messages and text messages beginning June 15 following the prospect's sophomore year in school.

•As long as the correspondence is private, a Division II coach can send a recruit a direct message on Facebook, but s/he cannot write on the recruit's "wall."


Division III. Coaches in Division III can now use unlimited text messaging to communicate with recruits, which will ease communication with students who increasingly prefer texting to e-mail or phone calls.

Sign of the times

I think these are great changes! I think that opening more communication will allow better decision making as to who commits where. Will make things less frustrating when you contract a coach and they cant contract back.
